Then, as I got close to the Capitol Building - about 2 minutes later - the sun was kissing the peaks across the channel while the lower levels were still enfogged.
And after HB 76 was passed out of the State Affairs Committee (more on that in the next post) I kept seeing glimpses of the mountains and clouds through windows in the Capitol as I wandered around talking to people. Since the sun was out and since I left without breakfast this morning because the alarm didn't go off, I decided I just had to go outside and walk home for lunch.
In the foreground is Capitol Park, just behind and to the east of the Capitol building. Our apartment is in a house the next block above those houses and one block to the right. And, of course, that's Mt. Juneau in the back, with the light and clouds and snow constantly rearranging the view.
And a little early lunch in the sun of our kitchen table.
Enjoy the sun while it lasts. The clouds are coming.
ReplyDeleteI have been watching the sun set over the Channel Islands and sometimes see the sunrise if the cat doesn't mess up my sleep to much. The other night, there was a neon pink patch over Santa Cruz Island. It's addictive here, too.
ReplyDeleteI know. After spending time in Southeast years ago and flying back into Anchorage, I said to myself, 'Why am I living here when I could REALLY live by the sea and mountains?'
